301 Redirects detected as duplicates
-
I have 19 pages that are all 301 redirected to the same page.
Moz is detected these 19 pages a duplication's of each other.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

Hey Nina, sorry your crawl data is looking a bit off.
We don't count 301 redirects in the duplicate content, so it may be that these pages were not yet redirected when we crawled or that they are responding differently to our crawler than they would in a browser. However, it is difficult for me to say without looking into the pages directly. Can you please let me know which campaign you are seeing this on so that I can investigate further?
If you prefer not to mention the campaign name in this public forum, you can email help@moz.com directly or use the contact form here: https://moz.com/help/contact/pro. You can just mention that you are replying to Chiaryn in your message and it will make its way directly to me.
I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Moz Pro: Redirect Chain warning given to pages that don't have redirects
When I look up crawl errors for a page, I'm always told the page suffers from redirect chaining. However, when I do a redirect check (in this case, using the Redirect Path Chrome extension), it indicates that my page does not use a redirect. Why would Moz detect redirects, while no other redirect checker resource does? For example, this URL gets Moz's redirect chain warning: https://www.aem.org/news/january-2018/5-reasons-iot-projects-fail/ But there is no redirect associated with this URL.

Many Duplicate Content Flags
Not sure about you all, but I’m loving the new Moz Site Crawler. However, I was noticing that it is identifying a huge amount of pages as duplicate content. There are about 30,000 pages in this website, with that said we’ve had to make many templates to make the site scalable. Additionally a url rule was lost which caused a significant amount of duplicate pages to be created. I am working through using the moz crawl tool to identify duplicate pages but noticing many pages under “Affected Pages,” are actually unique content pages with initial content that is duplicate. I read that Moz flags any pages with 90% or more content overlapping content or code. My theory for this is that some templates that are too similar, to the point that Moz reads them as duplicative. Has this happened for anyone else? In addition, if Moz is flagging these similar pages as duplicate content, do we surmise that Google bots are having the same issue? We have seen issues with rankings as it pertains to the actual duplicate pages but hadn't experienced issues across the unique pages, they are hyperlocal pages so we are able to see rankings quite easily.

Duplicate Page Content
The site crawl is registering duplicate page content for our storefront site, but the pages aren't the same. They're ascending pages within the same category (ex: Featured, Featured pg2, Featured pg3, and so on). What can be done to fix these errors or prevent them in the future?

Are there any tricks for checking duplicate content?
Hello all, My MOZ weekly scan keeps coming back with indication for duplicate content on pages that don't have that much alike. I feel like I must be missing something. Is there any place I can plug in two urls so that it would tell me what the similarities are and figure out how to make it less of a duplicate content? https://www.stage32.com/happy-writers/pitch-sessions/Pitch-Amar-Hansen-Saturday-October-29th-2016

Cannot crawl website with redirect intalled on subdomain url
Hi! I want to crawl this website : http://www.car-moderne.ch. I tried a got back the crawl just for that one url (not for all the pages of the website). This single line cvs says that the status of the http://www.car-moderne.ch is 200, but in fact it is a redirect 301 to http://www.car-moderne.ch/fr where the live home page is (actually the Moz bar sees the 301, not the 200 as the single-lined crawl does). How can I proceed in this case (a 301 redirect being installed on the subdomain url) to still be able to have a full-fledged juicy cvs with all the broken links, duplicate content, etc. Thank you for your help!

Spam score 9/17 and redirect Question
I sat on a .com domain, which name become increasing popular (xyzselfie) for 2 years ... 4 months ago I hired a VA to do a task. A miscommunication made this person submit my domain to the spammiest directories the internet has to offer. Also because of the domain name and the .com a lot of asian or weird sites/things posted links to my site. I have worked on my site for the last 4 months trying to lower my spam score from a 9. I have:
Moz Bar | | onlinegusto
-Disavowed all the sites that pointed to my site.
-Made more internal links
-Tried to make my content thicker
-Included my email and social profiles to the site In the process my competitors site with exact domain name but .net and more authority came on auction, I bought it and I pointed it with a permanent redirect to my site (hoping my site would in time lose its spam score). This site will generate and income by appearing in search and adsense ads. After months of work I'm at a loss what to do. Does the spam score generally take long to drop? Should i try and stop the permanent redirect and direct my .com to the .net domain? Are there experts who can lower my score? Should I look for non spammy directories in its niche and submit my site to them to increase link authority and nofollow links ? Any feedback or insight would be highly appreciated. fFtTOFk0 -
Duplicate page content
Hi guys the feedback form my campaign suggests I have to much duplicate page content. I’ve had a look at the CSV file but it doesn’t seem to be abundantly clear as to which pages on my site have the duplicate content. Can anyone tell which columns I need to refer to on the sheet, to ascertain this information. Also if the content is only slightly different, will Google still consider it to be duplicate? I look forward to hearing from you
